Mizzou Recruitment Fall 2014

[Lovemybulldog]

I'm not entirely sure MissouriFan's numbers were completely off base, considering Mizzou had two more rounds after that (philanthropy and preference) and they had to reduce 1900 PNMs to "around" 100. I also realize regardless of whether those numbers are accurate or not, she should have kept that information to herself. However, is it necessary to spew venom and make snarky comments? Let's assume she's a mom/grandma/aunt whatever whose daughter was keeping her updated (right or wrong) and she didn't realize it was a no-no to put those stats on here. I think there is a friendly way to let her know that. There's really no need for profanity or reprimands. If you read her comment, it did not seem mean spirited in the least.

Lovemybulldog I agree. I assume that the person posting didn't realize she was committing a faux pas. I hope that for the most part everyone on here has good intentions. Best of luck to everyone who is going through recruitment this week, whether as a PNM, active, alum supporting a chapter or a loved one riding the recruitment roller coaster.
